Well here she is,. I rode it a fair amount today, took it to a buddys house and rode it around the yard also. It is an 86 that is in real nice shape. The fork boots had cracks in them so I took them off right away. I am going to use some of the parts I have collected for the 84 300R on the 350x, I have new bars, fork seals, grips and fork boots. I can get all this stuff again later for the R. The 350X came as pictured, PRM six pack rack, head light guard, bead lock rims and brand new back tires. I have the rear black flap but it is cracked. the machine came with the stock rear rims, a complete seat and rear Maier fenders, these are brand new never riddin with. the engine skid plate, N.O.S 350x hand grips, factory tank scoops that have some scratches in them, extra tank, and a few other goodies. Runs real nice and everything works as it should. This thing is a torque monster, I really like it. I have wanted a 350x for a very long time and most are wore and beat pretty bad. I now own at least one of every model of Honda atc made. I have not cleaned or done anything with it yet, it is in really nice clean shape. it has been rode very lightly, the last few years it was only rode about 3 times a year around the guys yard. I was looking at 350x's all over the country the last few years and waiting for the right one, glad I did. Got this one within an hour of home.

Really nice 350X man!! Looks awesome!!

You can polish up those fork legs really quick. I'd go back in with a dremmel and sand or file down the top 5 fins on the cylinder...so the bar metal shows.

Drives me nuts when people spray over the cylinder and cover that up. Awesome trike!!

Really nice trike! I need to pick me one up for the trails around here, this two Stroke is not the most ideal platform for what I have encountered but I will such it up until I can get a four stroke.

I am rebuilding the forks right now, the lower legs were pretty corroded and nastsy so I am polishing them. Have one almost done, looks nice. Not going for super shiny just clean and smooth.
